concern for a very long time now russia doesn't want an arms race and if nato is to place its anti-missile defense shield in europe and then for a missile defense shield that's going to be covering a big part of washington russia's territory then of course an arms race exactly what's going to happen according to present the big if we could see it starting by as soon as two thousand and twenty and the united states have signed strategic arms reduction treaty specially for the purpose of preventing an arms race and this a.m.d. seems to be an apple of do you for that exactly going to do the opposite of provoking we never states and we would agree on missile different over night or even in a few months this is true important for all of your good gianluca missile defense. there's easily as many hoped it would cost of the lisbon summit however it is done and is going on and should say we are talking about how russia sees further work in this field russia's envoy to nato would be there has been saying that it's now time

9:05 am
the foreign affairs minister don't go into libya it's a very bad conflict it was started by the cia and it's a dirty business don't go there so this is why you voted with russia and china now the backlash from washington is so tough obviously we are under pressure to do something to make up for this decision aside from peer pressure germany may be lured by the possible financial benefits of making its weapons available for nato sousse in libya probably germany will get paid for delivering these arms to other countries but that is normal practice between current events in nato countries. out of the twenty eight need to members only eight are actively participating in libya with civilian deaths to which needle recently admitted to a shortage of weapons and the ever relentless more market duffy still at the helm the correlation may be facing just the beginning of its problems. brylin is in
9:06 am
a tough spot on the one hand. it has disappointed need to know by refusing to support the mission in libya and march on the other by agreeing to supply bombs it may now lose friends in other high places and whatever the real reasons for its contradictory policy may be germany could find it by trying to please everyone it's may end up pleasing no one if you know goes. meantime or nato has deployed a commando units in libya to quote get rid of colonel gadhafi but that's the claim from one of his sons this comes after another son saif gadhafi focus groups have been to the thing that he believes the alliance wants only to the standards of use for. these countries is that he's a pick rich you guys or you and you have more than one hundred million dollars because it's abroad so we have to show these kids. and they have to get with
